Las Vegas Review-Journal, Oct. 26, 2001.
• Silverado 45, Basic 23 -- At Basic, after falling behind the Wolves (0-9, 0-3) 15-0 in the first quarter, the Skyhawks (5-4, 3-1) unleashed their one-two running attack of Larry Patterson and Marvin Reddick to capture the second seed in the Sunset Division.
In the second quarter Patterson broke loose for 102 yards on three carries and two touchdowns, and Reddick had 55 yards and a touchdown.
The second half was more of the same, with Patterson breaking loose for a 37-yard touchdown run on the second play from scrimmage. Reddick punched in another touchdown on the Skyhawks' next possession. Patterson finished with 174 yards, Reddick with 141.
The Silverado defense tormented Basic quarterback Chris Montano, sacking him five times and letting him scramble for only 25 yards on 20 carries. Montano also had to cover a bad snap in the end zone late in the fourth quarter for a safety.
Basic finished the season winless after capturing their division title just a year ago.
